Did some more dis-assembly ......getting ready for the new drivetrain that will be arriving next week.......and parts are starting to arrive (I like to plan in advance so when I start .....I can keep going).........as you can see, when it was built, it was built with all the good stuff !!!

Sad to see a &quot;real&quot; engine removed -- probably sell it to pay for the LS thing and have money left over ...

Wow! Nice~~~~~I can't wait to follow along!

Re: 57 Nomad Project.........
 

Looks like Imron. Beautiful. That big block is gonna take up a lot of room in the garage. Want me to come get it out of your way? I would hate to see you tripping over stuff while you're building!

Cool car, perfect for cruising. Owned one years ago. They're like dinosaurs anymore. Enjoy!

Re: 57 Nomad Project.........
 

A couple of neat things about this car..........whoever built the car in California originally did a great job with the install of the engine/trans..........the frame engine mounts are a work of Art.......and the trans has a tubular trans mount and frame mounts installed very professionally.........Gonna save a lot of fabrication and installation time getting the new drivetrain in..........Ended up very carefully taking the core support out........Pulled the headers off (Glad I never had to change the Spark Plugs on this puppy)..........dropped the trans out and then pulled the engine..........Now I can get the engine compartment Sparkling again.......
